makes me feel for all you out east in the cold ....here in Co its been upper 60s and it rained yesterday ....yup RAIN!! and it never froze. we are looking at mid 70s this weekend :glasses7:
Sorry fellers, winter is almost over anyways but until your groundhog goes to prison I think this is where its going to be
So....would the mac tool truck happen to have a hole saw made for thicker metal to make a 2 1/2 to 2 3/4 hole in 18 gauge steel.....I am pretty sure these floor pans are 18 gauge.
Our hole saws are for metal and have a cut depth of 1 1/4". Floor pans are high strength- high carbon steel and pretty tough to drill, almost as hard as stainless steel. Drill slow and use cutting oil to keep the heat down. What you did looks good Rani. tmm
Morning again, The shop needs to warm up!
I ended up using the hole saw to score the circle in the floor ......there was no way it was going to cut through being a harbor freight cheapy.(it got soooo hot too)
so after I got it to sort of "perforate" I used a cut off wheel to cut what kinda looked like pizza slices and then knocked each one out and then I used a dremel tool to round it out. ......not perfect but got there
a good hole saw would have cut though
For some reason pizza sounds good for lunch
Morning all, just got to work, getting ready to go out. Third cup going down MMMMM. Be safe and stay warm. Rani, need more pics, looks good.
That's funny! I am thinking about breakfast.

If you used TMM's hole saw, you could have used the whole saw (blade)....

Just took the dog out. Had to get the garbage cans out at 2 AM because the recycle guy usually comes between 7:30 AM and 8:00 AM.... :banghead:
If I don't get it out the night before, sometimes I miss him.... :banghead:

I totally forgot today was trash day.
Better get to it before you miss it.... :banghead:
My recycle guy only comes every two weeks. If I miss him, I have a long wait....
